Your turn
The Neighborhood Bill of Rights (NBR), City Ordinance 95-247-106, was passed by the Jacksonville City Council in 1995. The ordinance is aimed at addressing the need for impactful community input in government decisions by guaranteeing recognized neighborhoods the opportunity for formal input into the annual budget process and the opportunity to express preferred city government priorities.
